I have been on a hiatus. This much I know. My husband joked with me the other night about my very brief stint in the blogosphere. I couldn't really tell him with any confidence why I have just dropped off, but alas, it just happened...I felt uninspired and just uninspiring. And, maybe a little tired with the lack of sleep and the ever-present juggle of work and family.

But, after we came back from a much-needed vacation to the country-side in Ireland, I guess I started to kind of miss it. Could that be? It's like that guy - that guy that tells his whole life story to the person he hardly knows in the seat next to him on the airplane (whether the seatmate likes it or not...;)). I'm not sure who even reads this (besides my wonderful sister and my husband;)). But I guess there is comfort about writing here. In this space. Into the great wide open.

HELLO!

Welcome! I'm Melissa and this is where I document the simple joys in my life and my attempt to cut out all of the unnecessary stuff along the way; mostly, here, I share the sheer satisfaction I am finding being a wife to my husband and a mama to our new little love, jackson. Thanks for reading!
